The lighting body made from cast aluminium is carefully manufactured and prepared by hand for accomodating the delicate mechanic components and the sophisticated light and light management technology as well as for the precious lacquers. A masterpiece of traditional founding made in Germany: The massive but delicate body of the luminaire is cast from pure aluminium in one piece. The precious metal is light, fully recyclable and provides ideal cooling to the integrated technology. For the millelumen sculpture in chrome and 24k gold plated another process was chosen: Each body gets cut out of a full block of aluminium by a milling machine in over 12 hours. Only this ensures perfect galvanised surfaces.
